金牛的英语是什么?

金牛的英语是什么?,第1张

如果你说的金牛是金牛座的话那英语是Taurus,如果是金牛犊就是Golden Calf。

另外科普一下“bull/ cow/ calf /ox 与“牛””

 bull(公牛)

在英语中,“公牛”常指“体壮如牛的人”,同时还具有“桀骜不驯”“恃强凌弱”的国俗语义。1712年,英国作家约翰阿布斯诺特(John Arbuthnot)在其讽刺小说《约翰牛的生平》(The History of John Bull)中塑造了主人公“约翰牛”(John Bull),意在通过这个赳赳武夫的形象暗喻当年英国人的“专横跋扈”。随着岁月的流逝,John Bull一词的贬义已经逐渐消失,“约翰牛”现成了“英国人”的代名词。

cow(母牛)

英语中的“母牛”含有“懦弱”“胆怯”的意思,cow-hearted、cowish均含此义。相关的例句如The men were cowed into total submission(这些人被吓得服服帖帖。)此外,cow还常被用来指“肥胖笨拙的女人(或婆娘)”。牛在印度文化中是神圣的,受此影响,英语在本世纪初出现了习惯用语“sacred cow”,用以指“神圣不可侵犯的思想、机构、制度等”。

calf(小牛)

英语中的“小牛”指“愚蠢的胆小鬼”或“稚嫩的人”,短语“calf love”常用来指“少男少女对异性的短暂爱情”或“初恋”。《圣经出埃及记》(Exodus)第32章讲到,古犹太人在摩西(Moses)上西奈山之际逼其哥哥铸成一头金牛犊来供大家顶礼膜拜。因此,英语中“worship the golden calf”指“为了物质利欲而放弃原则”或“崇拜金钱”的意思。

ox(阉割的公牛)

“ox”一词在英语中含有“愚蠢”“呆头呆脑”“笨拙”等义。英语中用“dumb ox”或“as dumb as an ox”描述“呆滞(或笨拙、沉默寡言)的人”;“play the giddy ox”则指“胡闹、干蠢事”。

另外汉语中的牛,有出现十二生肖中,而且体积最大,所以人们习惯“牛”喻“大”或“多”,如用“牛嘴”“牛眼”“牛脚”来形容人体某种部位粗大不雅;用“牛声马调”形容骂人声音粗野而难听;用“九牛一毛”言极多数目中的小部分。值得注意的是,汉语中的“他壮得像头牛”,在英语中习惯用He is as strong as a horse来表达。而“他倔得像头牛”则习惯用He is a stubborn as a mule来表达。
